Et Cetera

A whatsapp forward, but so true! :D
Newton’s first law : Inertia. A vehicle in Bangalore remains in a state of rest, irrespective of whether it is acted upon by an outside force or not. There is no question of any state of motion. This is particularly true in places called Marathahalli, Outer Ring Road, Kundalahalli and Hoodi.
The only exception to the first law is when you are rear ended, in which case you do make a slight forward motion, before coming back to the state of rest.
Newton’s Second Law : F=ma/chr. Force is equal to mass times acceleration divided by crater depth, divided by speed breaker height and divided by river mimicking capability of the road. It can never be greater than 1 (0.01 in Marathahalli, Kundalahalli, etc etc)
Newton’s Third Law : Equal and opposite reaction. As soon as a road is tarred, it will be dug up. The size of the digging shall be equal to, and opposite of, the quality of the tarring.
Newton has also postulated three additional laws specifically for Bangalore.
Fourth Law – Law of elevation : The size of the truck broken down at the foot of the flyover is inversely proportional to the width of the flyover, subject to the “BBMP constant” that the width of the truck shall always exceed the width of the road.
Fifth Law : Law of relativity of colour : Colour is not absolute but relative to where you are on the road. It shall always appear green to the driver coming to a signal irrespective of what it might appear to anybody else.
Sixth Law : Law of relativity of space : The gap between two cars shall always appear infinite to a two wheeler, while to the two cars in question it shall appear infinitesimal.
Bangalore BHPians are kindly requested to mug up the above laws.

4. Clutter Buck Ganj
